I'm trying to install ubuntu and when I click on the try ubuntu before installing one it gives me this error

Error: premature end of file /casper/vmlinuz.efi. Unaligned pointer 0xc0512c0B Aborted. Press any key to continue

This is my first time using Linux and needless to say I am very confused on what to do right now.

Edit: Version 14.04

The file casper/vmlinuz.efi is the Linux kernel on the installation medium. So if you're getting this error, it's a problem with your USB flash drive.

To fix it, I formatted my USB flash drive and copied my Live CD back onto it. That fixed it for me and, if that helps you, please mark this answer as correct. Thank you!
